Introspection! Hi guys, in this post we are going to talk about introspection. The meaning of introspection is the self-analysis. Self-analysis is very important in everyone’s life and if you understand the importance of this word, then you will be undefeatable. In my opinion, it is not just a word but a skill that will speak about you. It will tell you about your strength and weakness and also help you in achieving the desired goal.

So, let’s start the discussion and the list of discussion of this post are as follows:

1. What is the meaning of introspection?

2. What are the different methods of introspection?

3. What is the importance of introspection?

4. What are the benefits of introspection?

What is the meaning of introspection?

Introspection means self-analysis. It is the examination of own conscious thoughts and feelings. It is the best technique that surely helps you to get rid of the problem of continuous failure. Think about your past & present and get the analysis, and then decide your future. We as human do commit several mistakes every day and believe in me this is not the problem at all.

The main problem is “Are we learning from our mistakes”? and those who learn from their mistakes become clearer with his actions.

There must be several methods of introspection and let me share a few methods of self-observation that I have learned from my experience are as follows.

1. Learn from the past experience

It is one of the effective methods of self-analysis. The best teacher of your life is your past so sit relax and analyze yourself. It will tell you about your strength, weakness, passion, interest, hobbies, abilities, capacities and many more things. Once you know yourself, you can plan your future accordingly.

2. Feedback of the near & dear ones

This is the 2nd method of self-observation which I personally found most effective. Sometimes you are unable to analyze yourself and don’t know the right approach of analysis. It is also possible that you are not ready to accept your weakness when you are doing an analysis of yourself. In all such cases, a piece of advice from your near one will help you. They know you better and their feedback would become very effective for your future endeavor.

If you take help of this method, then you will get to know your strength, weakness, opportunities, and threats.

4. Ask Questions from yourself

This is another method of introspection and one of the best ways is to ask questions from yourself. “Why” questions can highlight our limitations and stir up negative emotions, while “what” questions help keep us curious and positive about the future.

What is the importance of introspection?

Introspection is very important and it helps us many ways. it will help us in making strategies for future projects or goals. There is a fact that every day thousands of thoughts floating in our mind and more interestingly 90% of them are repetitive in nature. Sometimes due to these numerous thoughts, we switch from one objective to another while deciding for future and at the end of the day nothing left except the confusion. So here the question is “what is the solution of this problem” and the one-word answer to this question is the self-analysis. Sit relax and talk to yourself. It will solve your problems.

What are the benefits of introspection?

Whenever we fail in our life, we feel depress and start to criticize ourself. Sometimes these failures force us to surrender everything but here the questions arise “Is it the right approach to handle life”? Committing suicide or surrender everything will solve the problem, I guess no. Being a human, our primary responsibility lies with ourselves and in such situations, self-realization becomes very handy.

There are several advantages of self-analysis. A list of a few of them are mentioned below:

1. It will give the clarity of thoughts; make you wiser & help you in the searching of future goals.

2. It will tell you about your strength & weakness thereby enabling you to become a better person in your life and can respond to any situation arising in your life according to your strength.

3. Whenever you introspect, it will give you a lesson or if I would say preciously then it would give you the learning of life.

4. It will boost your confidence and even make you more mature and calmer even when the situation is not in your favor. It also helps you in increasing productivity and makes you realize to stop worrying about the things which are not in our hands.

5. It will help you in finding real you and get rid of repetitive thoughts. Once we start thinking about ourself, we feel that nothing can stop us in becoming better individuals and we grow physically, emotionally, mentally, etc.
